Who needs to worry about weight and balance?

What happens when ground handling skips the weight and balance part of training at AUH.

Oops,

Move it to the front mate

Must be a delicate process to remove the weight from the back now so it doesn't suddenly drop the nose down.

If they read the handbook they might find a chapter on getting the plan nose up and down.
That is a big drop for the front wheel but as long as no one is watching.........

I worry about weight. I'm sure my bum is sagging lower too The extra weight on the front seems to balance it out though.

Presumably they'll slowly winch the load forward in the hold?

They will more than likely get a crane to support the front, then move the freight forward then drop the nose via the crane.

Bit like the Sydney episode.
